Adulation and praise <br />Twisted sisters of desire <br />Bred in every heart that beats <br />Born to stoke a hellish fire <br /> <br />As America's new idols <br />Claim a title not their own <br />Who feed on adoration <br />But God's glory isn't shown <br /> <br />Siren songs on rocky shores <br />Call softly to the heart <br />As lives once bound for glory <br />Bid other's grace depart <br /> <br />Marvels of the modern times <br />Blazing in a lusty fire <br />Their TV antics all the rage <br />Their lies lost souls inspire <br /> <br />The sound of sweet success <br />Waits to answer all your dreams <br />But it's lust that fills your heart <br />Not the beat of angels wings<br /><br />Mark Walters<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/adulation-and-praise/
